i'm just afraid of seeing someone else, to be honest. i don't know what to do.
Seeing a new person sucks at first because sometimes you feel like you have to back track and explain a bunch of shit that you've already told your old guy. It's okay to be scared of seeing someone new, but I seriously think it's an option you should investigate. When I needed someone to talk to I was able to find a non-profit organization who only charged me $25 a session. I would be very surprised if you couldn't find someone you could afford or couldn't somehow got the government to pay for it (don't you have universal health care?).
